KIO IS MY BABY. I have been... considering dropping him recently. I do admit that. It isn't because I don't love him, and it isn't because I am unhappy with my playing of him. It is mostly because I have had him for so long and he's been placed on the backburner for... sort of more than a year, now. He has spurts of activity: he can be unplayed for a week, and then all of a sudden, he has a few HUGE threads I enjoy SO much and then he goes back to being quiet and in the background. My one regret with him is that I haven't been hitting up his castmates as much as I want to, especially Soubi and Ritsuka.
Most of his camp relationships are gone or are in the process of being gone or are imperfect, and he is getting very unhappy about all of this, and... I don't know how long he's going to be staying in camp at this rate. He is not the first character on the list I would be prepared to drop, but... if this doesn't right itself in a few months, he's gone. Definitely.

There was a time when I couldn't fathom ever dropping Anko! I spammed it up with her and loved the way she tormented everyone. But that time is sadly gone. I could drop her right now and not cry a drop about it, actually. But I still do love her relationships, even the severely negative ones, and I enjoy being able to shut off my brain and just shoot off my mouth.
The biggest relationship she's ever formed in her... probably her entire life has left camp, no one listens to her, she has no authority whatsoever, she's completely miserable, and the only person keeping her sane right now is Sha Gojyo, so you know she's messed up (ilu sexy kappa). BUT! A depressed Anko is a self-destructive Anko, and I get twisted pleasure out of making her throw herself at the resident psychos. It's horrible, but it's also really interesting to play out.
She'll be in camp until right before she truly snaps. I don't want to play someone that broken, and I'm not confident enough in my ICness to be able to deal with it in a reasonable way.

Badou will drop when Haine drops, and that's that. It's just the way their relationship works.
I can't see myself wanting to drop anything soon, though. His canon is consistently my favourite, and I adore his character so much. He hasn't made any big relationships in camp, because Badou don't play that way yo, but I do like what he does have. I LOVE playing opposite of Haine, I also love having him be completely unsuccessful at interacting with other people.
Anyway, he's easy to play, and I like the voice I have for him. He doesn't ever have to be my primary, since Badou isn't the sort of character who would want to be a primary, anyway. He'd rather sleep in and have a few smokes and watch a few movies, not run around camp and be friends with everyone. So far, it's working out juuust fine.

Kouya will drop when Yamato drops.
I am... not entirely happy with my playing of her. I'm not steady with her voice, and she doesn't get out nearly enough. She isn't funny... but at the same time, I would not call her a straight man. Basically... she's so full of human emotion and angst and worry and all of these non-funny things that I feel a little odd having her at Camp Fuck U Die, crack RP.
I love her character so much (she and Yamato are still my favourites in Loveless, and that won't change any time soon), but I don't know how long I can sustain it. There will be no tears when she eventually has to go.

YOU CAN PRY MITSURU FROM MY COLD, DEAD HANDS :(
Okay, sooooo... she's not doing as much in camp as she should, and I really need to kick myself in the butt and have her interact more with her castmates, but despite those two things, I love playing her. I enjoy her interactions with everyone so much ('sup Ohtori Council). I love being able to top. I love her weird combination of mothering and TERRIFYING that she is. I like how she's probably the smartest character I have ever played (bar Seimei, maybe), and yet is also one of the most... retarded about everyday things. I do angst a bit about not having the attention span to do the sort of planning and epic plots that Mitsuru would want to do, buuut I have accepted my fail on that front, and can move on.
Mitsuru is the one character on this list that would be able to survive the dropping of all her castmates and current precious people. I don't think I'll be getting rid of her for a very long time.

I love playing Godot so much. I'm not entirely sure how IC I am, but I do love it.
Would I drop Godot if the rest of his castmates dropped? I think I could manage playing him in that setting, but would I want to? Probably not. I am good up until when/if that happens, though. I occassionally think that I'm not a very good Godot, because I suck at his elaborate metaphors (yes, this is what I'm concerned about most?!), but I am working on it! Replaying as we speak!
Probably second last on the drop list, all in all.
